India Pale Ale

Name: India Pale Ale

Brewer: Nøgne ø

Specs: 7.5% - 500ml

Testing Status: Previously Consumed

Recommendation: Yes

Well, here's your beer a day people! What we have here is a totally Norwegian affair, a Ringnes glass (which I'm reliably informed the beer of the same name is basically the Norwegian equivalent of Fosters, so meh), and a bottle of India Pale Ale, by Nøgne ø, which as I later found out, is not pronounced "Nogno", but "Noo-Noo" (y'know, like the hoover from the Teletubbies?). The beer is an acquired taste, I must say, quite strong, with the usual IPA characteristic, and at 7.5% and half a litre, you might feel this one more than your Budweiser... On a side note, having tried one or two Norwegian brews, they all seem to have a distinctive flair to them, and are stronger than most typical beers. But all in all, a good beer, interesting taste, and that label design is nice and clean :)
